Sacrament Time
and
Prayer Time
by Kathleen H. Barnes
Virginia H. Pearce
&
Illustrated by
Dilleen Marsh
From the Publishers:
My First Book of Mormon Stories
and
My First Church History Stories,
this book from Virginia H. Pearce and Kathleen H. Barnes Walker
is perfect for restless hands and eyes during church time or anytime.
Handsomely illustrated by veteran artist Dilleen Marsh,
the simple text draws examples from the Savior’s life
to suggest the kinds of things children might think about
during the sacred minutes of the sacrament.
Each suggestion is coupled with an actual story
about Jesus from the Bible
and lists scriptural references for older children to follow.
Readers can choose to merely read the simple story line,
pause to read the additional stories about the Savior,
or follow the references into the scriptures.
Some Answers Are Loud Some Answers Are Soft
by Barabara J. Porter
Illustrated by Dilleen Marsh
From the Publisher:
Children live in a world of questions:
Can I? Will you? Why? Why not?
Answers come from wverywhere:
parents, teachers, friends at school…
Some answers are loud and some are soft.
Some make children feel lonely.
Some make them feel safe.
And Some answers aren’t even answers at all.
In this delightful volume, lush illustrations
and simple, elegant prose
gently remind our little ones that there is
One who is always ready to listen.
“His are the very best answers of all.”
